Thanks for your comments, we really appreciate your feedback, which will be used to prepare the roadmap for the upcoming releases. There are many people working on new unique innovative features in different fields, such as high availability, fault tolerance and multi-tier architectures. This innovation is being developed in collaboration with several big organizations running very large scale infrastructures. Some of these organizations are also allocating or funding additional resources for development. This activity will contribute to strengthen OpenNebula’s position as the leading and most advanced technology to build cloud infrastructures.
